L'anima - Kingston upon Hull, City of

I visited this restaurant on a whim last night. The food was excellent, the atmosphere was warm and inviting, and the service was great. I would definitely recommend it. The chef even came out to talk to us and shared his exciting plans for the future, which include a new menu and decor. I suggest giving it a try for yourself!

My boyfriend and I visited this charming restaurant after noticing it while riding the bus. We saw the staff preparing the evening's dishes, giving us a feeling of being on holiday. The restaurant had a family atmosphere and we received a warm welcome. Despite being the only customers during our early visit on 'Mad Friday', we enjoyed chatting with Bart and his wife, who took excellent care of us. We were even treated to a complimentary sample of freshly made ravioli. The food was so delicious that we ended up ordering three courses, though we struggled to finish them all. Each dish was beautifully presented. The owner's passion for food and his family business was evident and added to our dining experience. We will definitely be returning in the future.

I visited L'anima on Saturday for a surprise birthday party and had a fantastic evening. The food was amazing, all meals were served together and were delicious. We felt very welcomed and I would highly recommend L'anima. I will definitely be returning again.

Having visited L'anima on several occasions, I decided to use the venue for a surprise birthday for my wife. This was the first time they'd catered for such a large party (around 20 of us in total) and the place was creaking at the seams but we managed to seat everyone with a little ingenuity! The standard of food as usual was excellent and once again, Bart produced a variety flawless, high quality dishes, all ready at the same time. Some of the dishes were quite literally cooked to order on the spot and still everything was ready at the right time! The group was served by Evelyne and for one waitress serving food and drinks to a group of around 20 people, everyone got their food at the same time, and yet she still had time to chat to the customers. Many larger venues could well take note of the standards employed by this relatively small place and small number of staff! After the event, everyone I have spoken to commented on the quality of the food, the ability for everything to be served at the same time and the general atmosphere of the place. The staff really do make an effort to make people feel welcome and I know many of the party who had their first experience of L'anima will be going back again! Well done L'amima VERY IMPRESSED!

Went for a birthday meal, Wsa extremely happy with the food and the atmosphere. The food was very well presented and cooked. I had pasta which was perfectly cooked and seasoned. The pizza was also delicious, I would recommend this restaurant if you want an authentic and very well cooked Italian meal. I would also recommend the takeaways from here as well, I have had numerous and have always enjoyed them.
